Founded in 2010 by Victoria Gray & Nathan Walker
York based O U I Performance, founded in 2010, is a not-for-profit, artist-led organization curating live time-based performance.

O U I Performance aims to create a physical and conceptual space for new work in the city through the careful orchestration of events curated by and for performance artists.

Facilitating an innovative programme of regular events, O U I Performance commissions new work by local, national and international artists. We are committed to developing live performance practice on a local level that is recognized and represented nationally and internationally.

Responding to a lack of sustainable infrastructure for contemporary time-based practice O U I Performance will support non-commercial and experimental arts practice. Fostering a growing culture of criticality and discourse O U I Performance will identify York as a centre for contemporary performance in the U.K.
